Episode 22 recap: Li Mengjue and Xie Jingshu's feigned play turned real.

Liu Yu'an was seriously injured and Jing Yan was by his side, giving him water. Suddenly, someone broke in. Lu Xier appeared with a mask, encountering Jing Yan. Jing Yan informed Lu Xier that Yunshan Jun wanted to kill her and advised her to escape quickly. This way, their conspiracy would fail, and Yunshan Jun would have no excuse to wage war. Otherwise, there would be widespread suffering, continuous conflicts between the two countries, and the common people would be affected.

Li Mengjue did not die. He disguised himself as Lu Xier and came to find the Second Prince. The Second Prince was pleased, but his expression changed when he saw that it was Li Mengjue. He was curious why Li Mengjue didn't die. Li Mengjue told the Second Prince that it was thanks to his confidant. The Second Prince had killed that person's parents and destroyed his clan. He felt that this deep blood feud must be avenged. Because Xie Jingshu was opposed to Yunshan Jun, he was willing to follow Xie Jingshu and use the fake death medicine to save Li Mengjue.

Xie Jingshu came out, and Yunshan Jun felt that these people couldn't stop his ambitions. Moreover, his chess game had already been successfully set up, and they couldn't stop it. Li Mengjue found Yunshan Jun detestable. Xie Jingshu had reported this matter to the Emperor when he was injured, and Yunshan Jun's trusted subordinates were captured. Finally, Yunshan Jun was captured.

Jing Yan felt that Xie Jingshu was acting like a hypocrite, and Xie Jingshu felt a bit embarrassed in front of Li Mengjue. Li Mengjue wanted to marry Xie Jingshu and asked Xie Jingshu to marry him. Xie Jingshu found it strange but agreed. Liu Yu'an felt that Jing Yan was acting suspiciously and must be waiting for Lu Xier. Lu Xier was also outside, watching the snow. Xie Jingshu knew that Li Mengjue was very worried about Lu Xier, and Li Mengjue felt that Xie Jingshu was talking too much now.

Xie Jingshu felt that Li Mengjue was important to him. (End of the drama)
